Regenerate - Re*gen"er*ate\ (r?*j?n"?r*?t), v. t. 1. To generate or produce anew; to reproduce; to give new life, strength, or vigor to.

Rejuvenate - tr.v. re·ju·ve·nat·ed, re·ju·ve·nat·ing, re·ju·ve·nates
To restore to youthful vigor or appearance; make young again.
To restore to an original or new condition: rejuvenate an old sofa.
To stimulate (a stream) to renewed erosive activity, as by uplift of the land.
To develop youthful topographic features in (a previously leveled area).

So in the plant world, If you cut a leaf and it grows back, it has been regenerated. If you have a dying plant that you bring back to life, then you have rejuvenated the plant.

Hope this helps,

Keep smokin,

I think the answer he,s looking for is .....
Regenerate is to flower a plant off leaving a small amount of growth (usualy the shitty bits of bud at the bottom ) . Then put it back under 24 hours light so that it thinks it is spring time again and if your lucky it will begin to grow new leaves after about a month.
You can then do what you like with it e.g take cuttings and keep it for a mother or just flower it off again.

Reguvanate i would say is the same thing , but hve never heard it called this b4.
